at Universal Studios in Orlando
Be the star for a day at this real working film and TV studio. This unique
444-acre Florida theme park, which seems to only improve with age, opened
its gates to the world in 1990. After some troubling early years, Universal
Studios now has six great and diverse themed areas for guests of all ages
to enjoy. The Studios has a little bit of something for everyone. Many places say that, but what is there for the younger kids to do? Well, at the Studios, there is an entire section devoted to the younger set called Woody Woodpecker's Kid Zone. Interactive play areas such as Fievel's Playland, which includes a water slide, and Curious George Goes To Town, where your kids will get soaked, could take up the entire day if they had their way. And what youngster would miss a chance to meet Barney? For attractions that both the adults and children will enjoy together, be sure to hop on a bike in the E.T. Adventure and help take E.T. home, ride Woody Woodpecker's Nuthouse Coaster, or catch the family friendly Animal Actors on Location. It's a hoot! All this fun is sure to make you hungry, and you will have plenty of choices. There is everything from a replica of a '50s diner, Mel's Drive-In, for burgers and shakes; Louie's Italian Restaurant for great pizza and more; or Monster's Cafe for pasta and salad. If your party can't agree, then stop by the International Food and Film Festival, which serves American, Asian and Italian food with one check-out so the entire family can stay together. And finally, if counter service is not for you, give Finnegan's Irish Pub & Grill or Lombard's Seafood Grill a try. Both are full service. For more choices, CityWalk and all its fun and wonderful themed restaurants are just outside the park gates. Universal Studios is only one of the two parks theme parks located on this property, the other being Islands of Adventure which has been referred to as the roller coaster park. The Studios is considered the more low-key park. The Studios are currently the home of many fantastic Annual Events that include Mardi Gras, Rock The Universe, Halloween Horror Nights, and the Macy's Holiday Parade and Balloonopolis. Don't be surprised to see a few Rockettes at the Parade and Tree Lighting ceremony. Mardi Gras and Macy's Holiday Parade and Balloonoapolis are both included your regular park admission. |
